Overview
- The jury returned its not-guilty verdict Thursday after less than two hours of deliberation.
- Prosecutors had accused the receiver of strangulation and assault tied to a December 2, 2025 incident involving his private cook, Jamila Adams.
- Adams testified that Diggs put his arms around her neck and began to choke her.
- Defense lawyer Andrew Kettlewell argued there were no medical records, photos, videos, or witnesses to support the allegation.
- An ongoing NFL review under its conduct rules leaves Diggs’ free-agent plans uncertain after his March release by the Patriots.
